Watch Me Disappear by Janelle Brown

Watch Me Disappear is my book club’s May pick. And I sure hope I can remember all the details by the time we meet up on May 29th because I read this one so far in advance of our gathering!

I really loved the concept of this book. Wife and mom, Billie Flanagan, goes hiking in the woods alone and disappears. A year later, her husband Jonathan and daughter Olive are coming to terms with the fact that she’s probably dead. But suddenly Olive starts having visions of her mother and she starts to question if her mom could still be alive. As they dig deeper into Billie’s past, they will discover a web of deception and trail of lies.

Janelle Brown did such a good job keeping me guessing for the duration of this book. I never knew what was coming next and loved the ride. There was maybe a small portion in the middle that lulled a bit, but it quickly picked back up until the end.

The relationship dynamics were really strong between the characters, and I enjoyed the twists toward the end. The epilogue was particularly well written and tied together all of the loose ends and questions that were outstanding.

Overall, I was a fan of Watch Me Disappear and can’t wait to read other works by Brown in the future.

About me? Who am I? I'm Ashley Houser, formerly Tocco (Toe-ko, not Taco). I live in Nashville, Tennessee and work as a pharmacy manager for Vanderbilt Children's Hospital. I married the love of my life in August 2017 and have been enjoying the ride ever since. But, let's get down to why I'm here. I'm a reader. I enjoy all things psychological, thriller, mystery, and everything in between. On occasion I find myself engrossed in a good dystopian novel as well. I started this blog as a place to share my thoughts on books I've ready in the mystery/thriller genre. And while that's still the case, it has now evolved to "all the books." Mystery, thriller, science fiction, southern fiction, young adult, you name it.
There is a little something for everybody. I hope this is a place where people feel inspired to pick up a book and jump into their next literary adventure. Happy reading!
